This adds a simple Chatbox in your forum home page for your members to chat.

The Chatbox is like a thread, members leave small messages in it for others to see. Think of it as an off-topic thread that never ends. The Chatbox can also help keep chatting out of the threads.

This mod is light on the server, uses little server resources to work. The default refresh rate is set to 5 minutes. You can disable automatic refreshing entirely in the options.

What's the refresh rate? The chatbox updates the messages shown every given seconds, that's the refresh rate. It sends a request to the server asking for new messages every X seconds, that you choose in the options.

Warning:If you set your refresh rate to 10 seconds this mod stops being so server friendly. You can do it, but be sure your server can handle it.

This mod is now final. It has all the features I think a chatbox should have, so I won't be adding more features to it. Anyone has my permission to use this as a base for another mod. It will still be updated for bugs though.

I updated the code SgtTechHead, should solve your problem.

I wanna know why someone gave this 1 star.

Oh if you are using 0.6 don't upgrade with 0.7, uninstall and reinstall. I changed the product ID. You may have to manually remove the "chatboxlite_shouts" table from the database too, im not sure if the 0.6 uninstall code removes it. The 0.7 uninstall code does remove the shouts table, so be careful. The shouts table has been renamed from "chatboxlite_shouts" to "chatbox" in case you wanna know.
